Cowboy Hoops: Oklahoma State Offers Three from Putnam Science Academy
It’s the same program OSU signed Ben Ahmed from.
The past four years have seen Putnam Science Academy win three National Prep Championships, and it looks like the Cowboys are trying to establish a pipeline with the Connecticut-based school.
As part of Oklahoma State’s 2025 class, the Cowboys signed Ben Ahmed from the school. Ahmed was named MVP of Putnam’s 2025 championship run. Now, three PSA players in the 2026 class have announced OSU offers across the past few days.
Adama Tambedou
By the sounds of it, Tambedou is a dawg.
Adama Tambedou had a MASSIVE weekend to open up the PRO16 season. This included one game where he finished with 23 points and 21 rebounds. @tambedou_34 | @RIElite_

247Sports considers Tambedou the No. 34 power forward in the class. Along with Oklahoma State, he also has offers to Arizona State, Creighton, La Salle, St. Bonaventure and others.
He plays on Puma’s Pro16 circuit with Rhode Island Elite, where he averaged 19.3 points and 15 rebounds a game in the league’s opening session.

Parrish Edmond, 2026
Edmond is a bouncy 6-foot-6, often throwing down dunks with his head near the rim.
OSU is his first high-major offer, but FIU, Bryant, Siena and others have also offered. He is unranked on the major recruiting services as of writing.
Edmond scored 10 points in PSA’s national championship win. He plays on Nike’s EYBL circuit with City Rocks, averaging 7.6 points and 3.2 rebounds across nine EYBL games while shooting an impressive 94% from the foul line.
Here are some highlights from his 2024 AAU season:
Jah Hatchett, 2026
As far as I can tell, Oklahoma State is Hatchett’s first offer. He’s a 5-foot-11 point guard from Grand Rapids, Michigan.
Hatchett plays on the Under Armour circuit with Storm, a Grand Rapids-based program. Across seven games on that circuit, he averages 12.3 points, 3.3 rebounds, 4.1 assists and 2.6 steals a game while shooting 32% from 3 and 82% from the charity stripe. He had a 20-point, eight-rebound performance against Team Thrill back in April, a game where he also had five assists and four steals.
“My main focus is getting my team involved and playing defense,” Hatchett told Pro Insight earlier this month. “I love defense, so I always try to set the tone with defense.”
Although Hatchett might be what some would consider undersized, OSU coach Steve Lutz has proven in the short time he has been in Stillwater that the can overlook height for a defensive bulldog. Arturo Dean started 21 games for the Cowboys this past season at 5-11.
